Docker Guide for MostroP2P

This guide provides instructions for building and running the MostroP2P application using Docker and Docker Compose.

Prerequisites

Ensure you have Docker and Docker Compose installed on your machine. You can download Docker from here and Docker Compose from here.

You need to have a LND node running locally. We recommend using Polar for this.

The compose.yml sets up the following services:

To build and run the Docker container using Docker Compose, follow these steps:

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/MostroP2P/mostro.git

Ensure you have the settings.toml configuration file and the mostro.db SQLite database in a config directory (acording to the volumes section in compose.yml file). If you don't have those files from a previous installation, then the first time they will be created as follows:
```
mkdir docker/config
cp docker/settings.docker.toml docker/config/settings.toml
cp docker/empty.mostro.db docker/config/mostro.db
```
Don't forget to edit lnd_grpc_host, nsec_privkey and relays fields in the config/settings.toml file.
Set the LND_CERT_FILE and LND_MACAROON_FILE to the paths of the LND TLS certificate and macaroon files on the docker/.env file. These files will be copied to the docker/config/lnd directory. For example:
```
LND_CERT_FILE=~/.polar/networks/1/volumes/lnd/alice/tls.cert
LND_MACAROON_FILE=~/.polar/networks/1/volumes/lnd/alice/data/chain/bitcoin/regtest/admin.macaroon
```
[Optional] Set the MOSTRO_RELAY_LOCAL_PORT to the port you want to use for the local relay on the docker/.env file. For example:
```
MOSTRO_RELAY_LOCAL_PORT=7000
```
Build the docker image:
```
make docker-build
```
Run the docker compose file:
```
make docker-up
```

To stop the Docker container, run:

make docker-down

Run the following command to start the Nostr relay:
```
make docker-relay-up
```
Stop the Nostr relay:
```
make docker-down
```
